Dear CP2K group,
Trying to perform a broken symmetry in a structure with two Cu(II) centers,
as I have understood from here [1] (S Ling) and here [2] (Marcella) there
is a scaling factor = 2 to take into consideration when setting my &ALPHA
and &BETA channels. Copper is [Ar] 3d10 4s1 and since I want to get Cu(II)
my goal is [Ar] 3d9 (with one unpaired electron).
Taking into account the scaling factor:
&KIND Cu1
ELEMENT Cu
BASIS_SET DZVP-MOLOPT-SR-GTH
POTENTIAL GTH-PBE-q11
&BS
&ALPHA
NEL -1 8 *(because (10 + 8)/2 = 9 and I want 3d9, unpaired e- spin up) *
L 0 2
N 4 3
&END
&BETA
NEL -1 -10 *(because (10 - 10)/2 = 0 and I want 3d0, no e-) *
L 0 2
N 4 3
&END
&END
&END KIND
&KIND Cu2
ELEMENT Cu
BASIS_SET DZVP-MOLOPT-SR-GTH
POTENTIAL GTH-PBE-q11
&BS
&ALPHA
NEL -1 -10 *(because (10 - 10)/2 = 0 and I want 3d0, no e-) *
L 0 2
N 4 3
&END
&BETA
NEL -1 8 *(because (10 + 8)/2 = 9 and I want 3d9, unpaired e- spin down)*
L 0 2
N 4 3
&END
&END
&END KIND
The results (attached) is a myriad of NaNs and 0.000000000
Any ideas will be very much appreciated.
